Frequent shifts in policy on fertiliser markets have occurred in Ethiopia with the aim of facilitating both physical and economic access of farmers to fertiliser. The last shift was the introduction of a monopoly on each stage of the supply chain in 2008. Furthermore, government control of prices and margins as well as stockholding programmes are also present on the markets. This paper evaluates the effect of these policies on the integration of domestic with world markets of fertiliser, using cointegration methods. Time series data of diammonium phosphate (DAP) and urea prices on world, import and retail markets between 1971 and 2012 are used. The findings show high transmission of price signals from world markets to import prices for both DAP and urea. However, between import and retail prices there is no evidence of cointegration for urea, while for DAP full price transmission is concluded. In the retail market, domestic transaction costs associated with storing large volumes of fertiliser act as a buffer between import and retail prices, especially for urea. Therefore, economic benefits could be achieved by reducing the size of stocks and revising the demand estimation process.

The paper aim is to analyse the influence of the European Employment Strategy (EES)in the implementation of the Spanish labour market policies. The first part of the paper describes the evolution and content of the EES. In the second one, the definition of activation is also explained. In addition to that, the ways how the EES develops and promotes active labour market policies are examined. The evolution of labour market policies in Spain and the current configuration of both active and passive policies are studied in the next three chapters. In these parts, the paper investigates to which extent the provisions of the EES have been implemented in Spain. The paper shows that: i) activation has been rising in the European countries since the implementation of the EES; ii) this fact has also happened in relative terms (comparing the evolution of active to passive policies); iii) Spain has been one of the countries which has led these processes; iv) the EES seems to have been influencing

Abstract 1: Social Networks such as Twitter are often used for disseminating and collecting information during natural disasters. The potential for its use in Disaster Management has been acknowledged. However, more nuanced understanding of the communications that take place on social networks are required to more effectively integrate this information into the processes within disaster management. The type and value of information shared should be assessed, determining the benefits and issues, with credibility and reliability as known concerns. Mapping the tweets in relation to the modelled stages of a disaster can be a useful evaluation for determining the benefits/drawbacks of using data from social networks, such as Twitter, in disaster management.A thematic analysis of tweets’ content, language and tone during the UK Storms and Floods 2013/14 was conducted. Manual scripting was used to determine the official sequence of events, and classify the stages of the disaster into the phases of the Disaster Management Lifecycle, to produce a timeline. Twenty- five topics discussed on Twitter emerged, and three key types of tweets, based on the language and tone, were identified. The timeline represents the events of the disaster, according to the Met Office reports, classed into B. Faulkner’s Disaster Management Lifecycle framework. Context is provided when observing the analysed tweets against the timeline. This illustrates a potential basis and benefit for mapping tweets into the Disaster Management Lifecycle phases. Comparing the number of tweets submitted in each month with the timeline, suggests users tweet more as an event heightens and persists. Furthermore, users generally express greater emotion and urgency in their tweets.This paper concludes that the thematic analysis of content on social networks, such as Twitter, can be useful in gaining additional perspectives for disaster management. It demonstrates that mapping tweets into the phases of a Disaster Management Lifecycle model can have benefits in the recovery phase, not just in the response phase, to potentially improve future policies and activities. Abstract2: The current execution of privacy policies, as a mode of communicating information to users, is unsatisfactory. Social networking sites (SNS) exemplify this issue, attracting growing concerns regarding their use of personal data and its effect on user privacy. This demonstrates the need for more informative policies. However, SNS lack the incentives required to improve policies, which is exacerbated by the difficulties of creating a policy that is both concise and compliant. Standardization addresses many of these issues, providing benefits for users and SNS, although it is only possible if policies share attributes which can be standardized. This investigation used thematic analysis and cross- document structure theory, to assess the similarity of attributes between the privacy policies (as available in August 2014), of the six most frequently visited SNS globally. Using the Jaccard similarity coefficient, two types of attribute were measured; the clauses used by SNS and the coverage of forty recommendations made by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. Analysis showed that whilst similarity in the clauses used was low, similarity in the recommendations covered was high, indicating that SNS use different clauses, but to convey similar information. The analysis also showed that low similarity in the clauses was largely due to differences in semantics, elaboration and functionality between SNS. Therefore, this paper proposes that the policies of SNS already share attributes, indicating the feasibility of standardization and five recommendations are made to begin facilitating this, based on the findings of the investigation.

Analizando las políticas económicas del régimen de Pinochet, se determina en qué sentido permitieron la construcción de legitimidad. Sin desconocer el uso de la fuerza, se sostiene que gracias a las políticas económicas, sus resultados y la nueva lógica económica en ellas incorporada, Pinochet llegó a ser legítimo para una importante porción de la población.

Esta monografía busca estudiar la interrelación que hay entre las migraciones internacionales y el surgimiento de proyectos y políticas de codesarrollo entre Ecuador y España. La globalización ha generado nuevas dinámicas internacionales que permiten la creación de nuevos parámetros y marcos para la regulación de las migraciones. A su vez ha sido un catalizador de fenómenos transnacionale; como las migraciones y las mismas políticas de codesarrollo. El transnacionalismo genera procesos con los cuales los migrantes crean y mantienen relaciones que vinculan las sociedades de origen con las receptoras. Por esta razón, la migración ya no puede ser controlada unilateralmente. De esta forma el codesarrollo surge como una medida transnacional para responder a estas nuevas dinámicas migratorias; es una política bilateral que busca obtener beneficios de la migración para ambos países, de modo que esta sea un vector y protagonista positivo del desarrollo.

Con base en, el objetivo de la siguiente investigación es indagar acerca de los hechos que llevaron al FMI a adoptar nuevos papeles, mediante un estudio cronológico de los diferentes cambios estructurales que se dieron a nivel mundial. Teniendo en cuenta la situación económica internacional, los diferentes paradigmas que se manejaban en el mundo y las diferentes doctrinas que dominaban las economías más fuertes. Se analizarán diferentes ejemplos en los que la intervención del FMI ha sido fundamental para conocer el ahora de las economías de los países subdesarrollados y se determinará si los resultados son acordes con los objetivos planteados. Por último, se realizará un análisis de la función actual del Fondo, a partir de su papel en las diferentes economías en las que ha intervenido, se establecerá hasta dónde los puntos del Consenso de Washington han sido puestos en práctica y qué se ha logrado en esas economías.

El interés de esta monografía es evaluar en qué medida se han visto afectadas las relaciones políticas de China y Taiwán tras su ingreso a la Organización Mundial del Comercio. Se analiza y se explica cómo las dinámicas comerciales y económicas del sistema internacional actual, inciden en el establecimiento de un dialogo político entre ambas partes del estrecho por medio del Acuerdo Marco de cooperación económica, teniendo en cuenta los antecedentes históricos y el conflicto soberano que involucra a ambos actores. Siguiendo la lógica del neoliberalismo institucional expuesta por el autor Robert Keohane, se planteará como el fenómeno de las organizaciones internacionales llega a tener una importancia tan amplia dentro del sistema que incluso moldea las características políticas determinantes de los Estados, por medio de la imposición de normas institucionales vinculantes.

This paper analyzes the document on primary health care (PHC) published by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2008, held to mark the thirtieth anniversary of the Declaration of Alma-Ata on PHC (1). Objective: to investigate in depth the assumptions outlined in the report, in order to problematize the notion of APS and universal access to health that are made in this proposal. Methodology: using documentary analysis examines the health proposal prepared by the international body and subjected to criticism from the following areas: a) conception of health as aright or as a service. b) Criteria commodified healthcare. Results: emphasize the permanence of a neoliberal perspective on the proposals WHO health reform in this document, which needs to be discussed in contexts where neoliberalism was intense processes of inequality and exclusion, as in the case of Latin America.
